The Amazing Spider-Man #162 (1976)

A lot of action and surprises in this issue. Punisher thinks either Spider-Man or Nightcrawler is trying to frame him for murder, and lures them into a trap. This issue had one of my favorite fight moves – after Spidey disarms him, the Punisher pins Spider-man to the wall with two throwing knives. Of course, after fighting a bit, they end up on the same side. Later, Spider-man is tricked and taken hostage by the real bad guy, Jigsaw. Spidey is rescued by Nightcrawler, and the three heroes take out Jigsaw and his gang. Written by Len Wein, artwork by Ross Andru.
